Yes, delete them from Windows system directory alltohether. They shouldn't be there in the first place.

>That's REAL wierd. I know I certainly did not put them there (did not even know that those files existed until you told me) and as it is my laptop, I have no clue to how they got there. Anyway, doesn't matter.

>>Whoever put VFP runtime files into the Windows system directory created this problem. You cannot blame VFP for that because VFP7 and later doesn't copy runtime files there anymore. They're installed into 'Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VFP' directory. VFP8SP1 replaced runtime files where VFP8 original install put them.
